This book is a collection of poems, stories, and essays of the people and events that have challenged me to make life-changing decisions in the way I view and live my life. It is a kaleidoscope of the daily events, episodes and experiences that have caused me to pause and ponder over the emotions, shock and bewilderment to my brain. They have motivated me to take stock of myself and stay grounded to think first, then act.On a personal level, I have experienced a change within the core of my soul and spirit.I will not allow anyone to interrupt or discourage my rhythm and alignment, for we are all unique who are driven to travel our own destiny.I wish to let everyone know that we all have the same trials, stress, anxiety and burdens of life's trials and tribulations. If we unite with one another together we will weather the storm for the duration of the journey we are destined to travel.I wish to inspire the reader to see life through the truths, flaws and realities of my life.
